Political Weirdos

On the one hand, I want to believe Scott Adams succumbed to some diagnosable degenerative mental illness or something. I used to enjoy Dilbert comics/media. (Anybody remember the animated series?)

On the other hand, even reading old Dilbert, a bit of me is always like "ok, yeah, in retrospect there's a disturbing undercurrent of xenophobic right-wing BS going on here". Maybe he was always like this at least to some degree before the Qanon brainworm devoured what was left of his connection to reality.

And that, of course, is why, when Roe v. Wade was finally overturned, all of the states immediately held referenda to let the voters decide, instead of mostly falling back on 100+ year old laws to make abortion illegal again.

This isn't even weird, this is just a straight-up asshole.

Scott, your logic is thwarted by the fact that efforts by states citizens working to get abortion rights put to a vote as ballot initiatives are being blocked by every measure possible by the GOP. Ohio is a perfect example:

• State GOP lawmakers with the GOP Governor's support and approval passed overly restrictive reproductive rights limitations over women's bodies through the state congress against public opinion.
• Citizens started efforts for a ballot measure supporting reproductive rights (including the right to a legal abortion).
• State GOP lawmakers broke their own rule to run a pre-election to try to make passing ballot measures near impossible. Voters voted that down. The GOP effort failed.
• The GOP Attorney General interceded in the abortion rights ballot measure language to make it more inflammatory. Voters, in the overwhelmingly red state, STILL voted the abortion rights measure into the State Constitution.
• The GOP Governor came out claiming that the citizen lead ballot language was too permissive, and that citizens should have been willing to negotiate with the GOP government even though voters were voicing their desire for legal abortion from the start and being ignored by state legislature and the Governor.

...so you're wrong, Scott. The GOP just plays dirty tricks at every level ignoring the will of the people, even its own voters on this issue.

So the Supreme Court took a decision that women already had the freedom to make at a national level, they already had that choice without men being involved, and removed that freedom, leaving it up to a hodge-podge of different states to decide as chaotically as possible, some with an extremely hostile interpretations that criminalizes even going out of state for an abortion. And many people need to expend a shit-ton of effort just to reclaim a freedom they had already enjoyed for decades, but somehow that was a gift to women?

Scott Adams is as dumb as management.

What an absurd word soup of mental gymnastics. I genuinely think he might have have dementia.

Scott Adams is RIGHT! This is EXACTLY why Republicans NEVER SAID they would ban Abortion Nationwide and why EVERY STATE with Abortion on the Ballot is NOT SUING IN COURT to get it Removed from the Ballot! Because State's Rights!

Sounds a lot like "It was always her choice. If she didn't want to get raped, she shouldn't have dressed that way."

Absolutely sickening.
